Tamyia RAD 8 German Armored Car

Post by Gb64c »

Tamyia 1/35 RAD 8, Armored car. Nice build good fit, no flash to speak of, good directions etc...

Painted with Tamiya German Grey, Future, Decals, Future, oil Washes, dry brush with oils, pigments and final dry brush.

The undercarriage is very detailed, U joints Drive shafts etc., then you put armor over them???? I saw Clems F 150 Pick Up truck and he had done the under carriage, very nicely. I have never done an under carriage other then a base coat of paint.

Question do other armor builders do under carriages of trucks, arm cars etc... I build them but do not paint or weather. But Clems pictures go me thinking, there is a lot of detail under this thing.

Hope you enjoy

And I said in another post, you see more in a picture, so I need to go back into this and remove some pigments.

My favourite shot of this build, which is another nice one from you sir, is the last one as I think it
shows off the weathering really well. :thumb2:

Brilliant build, and I usually paint all the running gear cv boots any visible engine and gerbox under the model, for some strange reason even if they are never seen, maybe I just like fine detail failing that im nuts lol
